Tags: Soccer Club Season.

This season was something of a throwback to the 19th Century. Not only were Villa champions again but they did it with just 14 players of whom no fewer than seven (Jimmy Rimmer Kenny Swain Ken McNaught Dennis Mortimer Des Bremner Gordon Cowans and Tony Morley) were ever-present. Gary Shaw made 40 appearances Allan Evans 39 and Peter Withe 36 with Gary Williams (22 appearances) and Colin Gibson (21) contesting the remaining spot in the starting XI.
